Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was scintillaitng on the pitch against the Blues as he produced a stunning display in the final, scoring twice to guide the Gunners to victory – but his performance off the pitch while lifting the trophy was less spectacular as he dropped the FA Cup during the presentation.<\/p>\n
Gunners\u2019 boss Mikel Arteta was quick with a smart response to Aubameyang dropping the FA Cupat the trophy-lifting ceremony as Arsenal\u00a0\u00a0celebrated their triumph over Frank Lampard\u2019s Chelsea in the final. The Gunners captain scored a brace to lead his side to victory after Christian Pulisic opened the scoring for the Blues.<\/p>\n
Arteta made light of Aubameyang dropping the same trophy he lifted as Gunners captain in 2014, claiming he will grow used to lifting titles under his management.<\/p>\n
“He needs more experience with trophies, we can get him used to that,” the Spaniard quipped after the match.<\/p>\n
The triumph over Chelsea marks the first time the Gabon striker has won silverware since his move to Arsenal in 2018.<\/p>\n
He has been on the receiving end of near misses, with Arsenal beaten in the EFL Cup final in 2018 and the Europa League showpiece last year.<\/p>\n
Aubameyang’s last trophy victory came with former club Borussia Dortmund as they beat Eintracht Frankfurt to win the German Cup in 2017.<\/p>\n
